Thymic interdigitating cells express thioredoxin (TRX/ADF): an immunohistochemical study of 82 thymus and thymoma samples.
Thymic ID cells are involved in the differentiation of mature T cells which are resistant against apoptosis. TRX/ADF is a potent thiol-related reducing agent, acts as a redox regulator, and it can attenuate the induction of apoptosis of T lineage lymphocytes. In the present study, 42 thymoma-free thymus and 40 thymoma samples were examined to identify the expression of TRX/ADF in human thymic tissue. TRX/ADF high-producer (TRXh) cells with cytoplasmic protrusions were found distributed in the thymic medulla. These TRXh cells were negative for CD3, a lymphocyte marker, keratin, an epithelial cell marker, and CD68 or lysozyme, macrophage/monocyte markers, but were positive for S100 protein and HLA-DR complex. Our results revealed that the TRXh cells in the thymic medulla were ID cells. As TRX/ADF has an important and fundamental role in cellular responses acting against oxidative stress, TRX/ADF may provide an explanation of cellular interaction between the medullary ID cells and the mature T cells.
